These are very nice, well constructed pill carriers. The Medium size is good for a moderate number of pills. It will fit about 8-10 round aspirin-type pills, or about 4-5 gel caps, as there is an inner plastic lining which takes up some of the interior space. Large vitamin pills need to be put in along the long axis, to allow space for other pills. I'm using one to carry a few Advil gel-caps in my purse, as the little containers are shatterproof, and seal well (no more picking purse fuzz off your Advil when you've got a headache). The screw-tops make a bit of metal-on-metal noise, and if not lined up correctly, can give you a moment of that nails-on-blackboard sound, but after the first few uses, this seemed to dissipate. I may try a touch of wax or even mineral oil (it doesn't break down) on the one I use most frequently. I assume they're anodized aluminum, as they're very light weight, and the colors are nice and vibrant. My only wish is that they had a few other colors. I expect them to wear well, as they are very sturdy and nicely made.

delivery was timely and well packaged, but I was surprised at how large theywere for a "medium size" it easily fits nickels. I would have preffered a more discreet size, but it is strudy, easy to open and close.

These things are much better than your average pill container. I've always had problems with pill containers opening in my pocket. These don't and they never get lost because you can attach them to your key chain. Very good idea.

I suffered a heart-attack last year 2009, and was given alot of pills to carry to take at my lunch times, saw this and gave it a try, I travel alot, and this little vile fits perfectly in my pants, and I can carry all my necessary pills plus large mulitvitamin.
Highly recommend this for those using zip lock baggies.

I always had problems remembering where my ear plugs were or just simply losing them, nice pairs too, $50+ pairs of ear plugs. I've lost MANY a pair, and since I have regular gigs 4-5 nights a week, saving my hearing is a very serious issue for me. Then, while looking for such a "pill bottle" as this, I came across a website that includes ear plugs with it for $55!!!! Insane! No way I'm paying that again! So I bought THIS instead, along with a good reliable pair of washable/reusable "Hearo" earplugs for under $10, I now have my hearing protection with me ALWAYS and it feels GREAT to be able to say that. My fellow band mates and collaborative musicians have been searching for such items since my recommendation.

ALSO.... great for factory workers, construction workers etc... anyone that needs ear plugs regularly should own this, keep your own earplugs (custom ones fit too) and stop using and wasting disposable ear plugs!

Slightly bigger than described. Mine are 25/64" in diameter. The aluminum is heavy gauge, and anodized finish inside and out, not painted. Should hold up well. Interior finish is quite good, but there is no inner plastic sleeve as described. Though I have not immersed, the o-ring appears to seal well, and the threads are quite smooth, opening and closing nicely. I think they are quite spacious, and I can fit 17 round aspirin in one of them. I take 13 pills a day, and they will fit quite comfortably within the case. Can be used to carry money. Three bills, four if you fold carefully, will fit inside. Cases I've seen at the drug store cost about as much for one as this set of four.

Don't know if the o-rings are easily replaceable or not, but in my experience they can last forever if you take care of them properly.

I carried several pills around in a (green) one of these for two or three weeks. On opening the tube I found all the pills covered with an uneven layer of green pigment. Stay away.

I ordered these items to replace having to carry plastic baggies w/me to carry a multivitamin, 2 Tums, a chewable fiber pill, and maybe a potassium supplement/a Tylenol or two. I'm not sure what I expected, but the items I reieved were much smaller than I had pictured. Previous reviews bragged about having so much space (I believe someone said there was enough space for 5 gel-caps or even 17-18 aspirin--and mentioned the inside fit a Nickel. The batch I received had an *exterior* diameter of a Nickel and the plastic interior took up even more precious room. After removing the interior plastic...the interior *will* hold something the diameter of a standard Tums (which is fine), but then only 1 vitamin and maybe a gel cap or two. I was hoping for something slightly larger that I could put all of my daily pills/supplements into--not just some.

This is a great product at a really good price.

Sizewise it is just right for me - not so large as to be obtrusive on a keyring but large enough not to get lost easily off the keyring (like in a small bag or pocket)

Holds about 8 capsules and tablets - enough for 2 days for me - so perfect for an overnight trip or as a backup for travelling by air. With the probably water resistant seal it should be good for canoeing - maybe one for medicine and one to hold a $50 note rolled up.

Would recommend this over the smaller ones - which I bought as well but they are just too small to be useful.

This size fits a single 3 volt lithium CR123 almost perfectly, which is why I purchased them. I have not tested the conductivity of the containers but there is enough room left inside to place insulators in the top and bottom and still have room for a battery. The Streamlight CR123A Lithium cells I'm carrying in them have a recessed negative terminal so it will not be an issue for my current usage. They have an O-ring and a one inch split keyring connected to the cap via a triangular jump ring. There is no swivel here so if twisted the cap can unscrew unintentionally. All in all, a great value and decent enough product to suit my usage. I suppose one day I may even put some pills in one of them :)
